Recommendations from the 2014 Summit

Home

Welcome to the Virginia Small Business Partnership! This exciting organization was formed in 2010 to serve as an advocacy body for the Virginia Small Business community.

In 2010, the Virginia Small Business Partnership in conjunction with Miller/Wenhold Capitol Strategies, LLC hosted the first-ever Virginia Small Business Summit, a gathering which served as an opportunity to bring lawmakers and policy experts together with small business leaders from across the Commonwealth to discuss ways to improve the Virginia small business environment. Over 180 business leaders gathered at the inaugural Summit to talk about current policies and areas for improvement.

Since then, the Virginia Small Business Partnership has hosted its annual Virginia Small Business Summit each September as a way to bring small business leaders and policy makers together to discuss ways to move Virginia forward by implementing pro-small business policies.

The proposals and solutions discussed at the Summit are compiled into a document and presented to the Governor and members of the General Assembly. The Official Findings of the Virginia Small Business Summit have led to numerous pieces of legislation and provided ideas for Virginia lawmakers.

The Virginia Small Business Partnership is an organization dedicated to representing the small business community to Virginia leaders and also serving as a resource to the small business community by hosting policy briefings and continuing to bring small business leaders together with decision-makers throughout the Commonwealth.
